I To all it may concern:
- Hamilton, State of Ohio, have invented cer- 1)", t ereof being turned upward into a vertitain new and useful Improvements in Furniture Legs and Aprons, of which the following is a specification.
The object of our invention is'a furniture leg and apron, especially for use in tables and desks, of a construction such that it may be packed in compact form for shipment and may be set up by the recipient with little labor, and which when so set up is of a firm construction. This object is attained by the means described in the specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a fplanview of part of an apron and two 0 the legs of an article of furniture, embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view upon an enlarged scale of the top ofa leg and of the form of the apron at a corner. Fig. 3 isa perspective View of the top of a leg, the apron and a table or desk to Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken upon line 'v'v of Fig. 3.
Referring to the parts: The leg, A, is made of a tube, which is preferably rec structed from a sheet of metal bent to form a tube and having at its meeting edges inturned flanges locked by an angle strip, as
illustrated in Fig. 2.
The apron, B, is made of a. strip of metal which is bent outward at a right an le at its upper end to form a horizontal ange, b, and is bent inward at its lower end to form a horizontal flange, b. The vertical member, 6 of the strip is bent to form a right angle at the corner I), theflange, 6, being cut at'b, to permit the bending and the 'fian e, I), being cut out, and the ends, b,
ca]. direction to fit against the external walls of the leg, A, as illustrated in Figs. 1, 3, and 4. The cornerpa', of the leg which fits into the corner of the apron 'is strengthened by a metal angle piece, C, which is held in place by means of rivets, e.
The flange, b, is perforated at intervals to receive screws which are driven into the wooden top, D, of the table, or desk. The ends, I)", b, are perforated and the leg, A, has perforations which register with the perforations in the ends, b, b, to receive screws to bind the parts together. Near the corner,
I), the vertical part, 12 of. the apron is perfora'ted to register with screw-threaded perforations in the leg, A and the angle, C, to receive screws, e. In manufacturing a plece of furniture with which our apron and leg construction is used, such as a table or desk, for shipment, a rectangular apron may be made in two pieces, each consisting of a side plece, I, two corners, and two half sides, 2. The half sides, 2, ma be then joined together by a metal strip, such as shown in- Fi 1. Then the top, D, is secured upon this rectangular apron by pass ing screws through the flanges, b, upward into the top: The rectangular legs, A, are then wrapped. with paper and laid in the receptacle formed by the inverted top and apron. It is seen that this formsa package which occupies little space as compared with the space occupied by a table or desk to which the legs have been attached. When the purchaser receives the goods, to assemble the parts, he has only to slip the legs into the sockets formed by the corners, b the top, D, and the'upturne ends, 6 b, of the flanges, b, and to insert the screws into the flanges, b, b and through the perforations inthe corners, b. The leg will then be braced in a manner such as to prevent spreading or loosening of the same. 0 I v What we claim is:
1. A furniture leg and apron consisting of an apron made from a strip of metal bent outward 'near its upper edge and inward near its lower edge to form horizontal flanges, the strip being bent t intervals to form corners and the lower fla ge being cut away at the corners, and legs fitting into the sockets formed by thecorners and the cutaway flanges. I
2. A furniture leg and apron consisting corners sockets for the le s and legs rectanof an apron made from a strip of metal, bent gular in cross-section to 5t into the sockets. 10 outward near its upper edge and inward '3 MAX S.
